I'd have to say @davemccoy for the pay it forward. When Steemit was in full swing in the early days I had the privilege of working with him. He was tireless in his efforts to help new content creators and would engage and assist with anyone who needed a hand. If ever he stirs again and decides to move towards that sort of thing then hive will be a better place for it. So many folks who are here now benefited from his efforts. So yeah, good old grumpy @davemccoy. He's a legend.
Great post @galenkp. Really like the idea and sincerity behind it. Good stuff.
